Numerical study on the influence of riblet yaw-angle on drag reduction rate with different immersion heights

Results in Engineering
This paper uses the Large-eddy simulation method to investigate the influence of riblet yaw angle on drag reduction rate with different immersion heights, revealing that the vortex structure is gradually transformed from riblet-tip vortex pairs to boundary vortex forms with the increase of yaw angle, and analyzing the influence mechanism of immersion ...

Optimization of the Production of Rubber Compounds Using Mathematical Models

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Rubber compounds were mixed in a batch internal mixer, and symbolic regression was used to derive mathematical models linking recipe and process parameters to ram path, torque, and mixing quality (incorporation, dispersion, distribution). Subsequent optimization with evolutionary algorithms identified operating conditions that reduce specific energy ...

A Method for Reducing the Drag of the Ship Shaped Wall by Using Piezoelectric Ceramic Vibrators

IEEE Access, 2019
High-frequency and micro-amplitude vibration applied on ship walls in the fluid can interfere with the coherent structure of the boundary layer near the wall to achieve drag reduction.

Controllable deformation based self‐adaptive drag reduction for complex surface

Biosurface and Biotribology, 2023
Reduction of energy consumption and improvement of cruising speed are greatly necessary for underwater vehicles. Previously, regular riblets have been machined and the drag reduction has been verified; however, the riblet parameters are not adjusted like

Modeling Dislocation Cutting of γ′ Precipitates in Ni‐Base Superalloys: Linking Atomistic and Dislocation Dynamics Simulations

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Dislocation cutting of γ′ precipitates in Ni‐based superalloys is investigated by linking atomistic simulations with discrete dislocation dynamics. The critical cutting stress is shown to be governed by the antiphase boundary energy, while line tension effects promote edge‐preferred cutting.

Machine Learning‐Supported Analysis for Predicting and Visualizing Nonlinear Relationships Between Material Properties in Electroplated Chromium Layers

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study applies machine learning regression to predict chromium layer thickness in decorative trivalent chromium electroplating, using 441 experiments from laboratory‐scale (1L) and pilot‐scale (14L) setups. Tree‐based models, particularly CatBoost, outperformed linear regression by capturing nonlinear parameter interactions (R2$R^2$ up to 0.77 ...

On the Effect of Creep on Local Lattice Orientation in Single‐Crystal Ni‐Based Superalloy Microstructures

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
During creep of a single‐crystal Ni‐based superalloy, the overall crystal orientation is observed to remain constant while the microstructure evolves. Despite the lack of macroscopic rotation, small (<1°) rotations are observed on the submicron size scale and are accommodated by counteracting rotations over the scale of several micrometers.
